Arrow happy winter solstice !!!!
shortest "day" of the year, but the sunset has been getting later since dec. 12
i judge a day by how late the sun sets
now the surise begins earlier

so we get extra daylight at both ends

here's to a short and easy winter
our B.C. friends have had a hard time

ontario, quebec and atlantic canada have had a mild winter SO FAR....

yeah, i know, i just jinxed our mild weather

Whenever it is/was--whatever.

Have a happy day, everyone.

We have more daylight, woohoo! (My mood is definitely affected by sunlight, so this is great news!)

It is a shame if it happened just after midnight. My parent's anniversary was yesterday and Dec 21 is also the day I proposed to my wife 10 years ago.

Maybe next year things will align again.

Correct you are, Doug. And, as always here in North America, it came first to St.John's. Paix, mes amis.

Oh crap...You mean I missed it again?
Oh well...Blame it on the rain...I forgot all about it.

I usually like to partake in the winter solstice festivals.
I've been too busy selling stuff to finance my scooter.

Next year...grumble...grumble...
